New Look for the Old Girl
 

I did some vinyl work in my 311. Got rid of the colored panels on the sides ...

Looks nice ;) .
I redid mine too but original (same colors as yours)and it never fails...the white is what always gets dirty :mad:

I like the white - looks great and updates overall look.

I need to redo my side panels too. I haven't decided to go all white, or keep the colors. I've done white on the sundeck and the rear seat.

We are increasingly ordering all white on new Fastechs. Looks classy and cooler to the touch in the sun. Formula lets us go either way,a no charge option. Or we can mix and match,white sunpad and color in the cockpit for I think $500 to cover their costs of special modifications to the production line. Not a bad deal to customize your boat.I personally like all the color,but it's not my money,nice to give the buyer a choice.

Looks real good....:drink:

Russ, if you do yours, do it all in Teal. :evilb: :D

Re: New Look for the Old Girl
 

We cover it up with a big towel on party days and it has stayed fairly clean. I never let anything get real dirty so it won't be hard to keep up.

I know not everyone likes the all white look. My original pad was still servicable but the black stripe was a killer when we were out in the sun. I love the all white pad; no more seared skin. :D

Re: New Look for the Old Girl
 

looks good!!! are the side panels screwed on or are they glued on? I like the all white, my boat is that off white light gray color, how do you think all white pad would look with that or should I stick with the stock burgandy, black, white and gray. hopefully redoing my pad this winter or spring, how do you think it goes with the rest of the interior being color?

Mine's had a Formula towel on the back seat since it was redone 5 years ago. Only knees are allowed on the engine hatch.
What I'd like to do this wiinter is get some white terry cloth and make a custom cover for the seat bottom with elastic around it to hold it in place , then get FORMULA embroidered it it :cool: .

Re: New Look for the Old Girl
 

Hmmmm, wonder why I never thought of that....:rolleyes: :D


Maybe I should just buy five gallons of teal Imron and paint the whole boat, inside and out, including the trailer and tires.
Then I could shoot myself with a teal bullet....:D :D

The original setup had seven seperate colored pieces on each side and each one had at least two bolts thru the fiberglass with a big washer and nut on the back. They were a bioch to get off and I used a grand total of eight bolts on each side for the new design.

If I had the gray interior I don't think I would do white on the sunpad. How 'bout doing the sunpad in gray - one solid color to match what you have inside? I looked at several boats before I bought mine and some had the gray interior. At first I didn't even realize it wasn't white but if there was an all white sunpad next to the gray I think it would stck out.

My goal was to get rid of the colors (especially the black) on the sun pad because it got way too hot in the sun. I was very anal about getting the correct vinyl so the grain and color would match. I think it goes well with the boat.
